If you have been following our page, you know about our devastating fire in January 2026.
One surviving miracle story was our pot-bellied pig named “Petunia.”
Earlier this week, my oldest grandson and I were spending some time “talking” to Petunia.
It’s nothing unusual for us to talk to all our animals as if they understand our conversations.
This day, it went something like this…
Me: “Petunia, can’t you please tell us how you escaped that horrible fire?”
Griffin: (in his pig voice) “Oh Gigi… you see, it’s simple… I saw a glimpse of Light, and I followed it!”
I shared this at church tonight, and it is worth repeating.
In that moment, my grandson preached one of the best messages I have ever heard.
As we go through so much in this life, we probably feel just like Petunia. We may feel like everything is crashing down around us. We may wonder how we will survive. We need rescuing from our problems.
There is one answer… follow the Light.
Jesus is the Light!
He is able to make a way of escape.
Just as the three Hebrew boys said in Daniel 3:17-18:
“If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.”
No matter what comes or goes… we will serve God.
John 8:12 says: “When Jesus spoke again to the people, He said, ‘I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.’”
Follow the Light.
